#1 is BOW Gianna Dawn team of event coverage! Close second is Guild ball, the next purchase in my future. Also honorable mention was the Hoth table attendance and commitment to run it during the event.

Good to get someone else’s take on the games. Hopefully I’ll get to try Guildball at Salute. Arena Rex may prove a bit harder but at least I can download the rules

I’m told that Common Ground lgs in Scotland stocks Arena Rex and can order in if they don’t have it. Not had a chance to check whether they do mail order.

@beetle- GENIUS! The more I sit & think about it, the more cool things come to mind. In a Batman game, the Joker can take over the advertisements with his cosmetics- Go With a Smile

@deltagamegirl22 or use it as your timer in timed games. If you are playing a sports game with timed innings, you can run a video of the timer interspersed with crowd noises and generic commentator remarks. When time is up, the video changes to the commentator calling the quarter/half. Then the video could change to a half-time show.

Sorely tempted to repurpose one of my eelectronics projects to terrain, one of these with an arduino powering it… http://www.hobbytronics.co.uk/lcd/tft-displays/tft-serial-display-18, although a rasp pi3 with built in wifi would rock as could just tether it to phone and stream images and vids to it…

As promised, as soon as it was officially unveiled I would reveal my #2, which was Star Trek by GF9. I got taken through a demo of this by John-Paul Brisigotti on the Friday evening. I’m no Trekkie, but I am a fan of 4X games, and this was an excellent one.
